The All Saints' comprehensive restoration project has been recognized by the historic preservation community with two awards – one from Preservation Massachusetts, and one from the Boston Preservation Alliance.

Preservation Massachusetts--the state-wide, non-profit historic preservation organization dedicated to preserving the Commonwealth's historic and cultural heritage--awarded All Saints one of its 2015 Paul E. Tsongas Awards. Tsongas Awards recognize projects that "have played an extraordinary role in promoting the preservation of our Commonwealth's past for the benefit of the future." Representatives of the Parish accepted the award at a gala event held at Boston's Fairmont Copley Hotel on May 6, 2015.

On June 16 ,2015, the Boston Preservation Alliance--a non-profit organization that protects and improves the quality of Boston's distinct architectural heritage through advocacy and education initiatives--announced that it has awarded All Saints one of its 2015 Preservation Achievement Awards. The Alliance's awards recognize "people and projects that demonstrate the highest level of commitment to Boston's historic character." The award letter from Executive Director Greg Galer notes that All Saints' project was "a true stand-out amongst a group of strong nominees." The award will be presented at an event onOctober 27, 2015, at Emerson College's historic Cutler Majestic Theatre in downtown Boston.

As Fr. Godderz noted in announcing the receipt of the most recent award to the project team, "While none of us has any question as to the significance of this project or the quality of its execution, it is gratifying to have outside recognition of our efforts in the form of the awards which we have received."
